Ok, we have 2,5 months till 2008 ends with many interesting releases coming soon. But what do you think about 2008 so far? I think it was good. Pretty similar to 2007. To be honest I have stopped expecting the super year that everything will sound great. This is how Psy is gonna keep going IMO. A lot of releases, some bad, some average, some good. This is how all music genres go, huh? Of course so far winner is once again SA scene for me. And what I see is that for every old artist that goes bananas, a new interesting artist appears. Your thoughts?

I think it's time to start thinking about our 2008 best.

Tandy-Naughty Moves The track of the tracks! Tanduuuuuu!!!! :posford: :posford: :posford:

Unfortunately I've only listened to the Black Rain track they made with Prana. Were they really that good?

I want it!!!!!!!!!!!! Avasari: Best ambient track ever. Simple as that. Dancing With Kadafi. It was too obvious to mention it. A work of pure genious.... I miss good old IM

Caution citizens MASSIVE GAY ALERT I repeat MASSIVE GAY ALERT I like it. The only weird thing is the face expression of the metal chick. wtf?

Psykovsky-Erlkoenig Genious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Nommos-Primal Meltdown Olien-Sounded Paratronic V/A-Frequency Trancemissions V/A-Ijigen Another Dimenion V/A-The Invisible Hand V/A-Mushy Mystery V/A-Deep Mental Trauma (both parts) All 100% forest

I have a really broad taste too, but Duvdev must shut the fuck up! You're not a singer, stop pretenting being one.

What do you expect from a guy called Aladdin and a cover like this And btw track 8 has nothing to do with full on.

“We’re an electronic band,” affirms Amit “Duvdev” Duvedevani, singer and co-founder of the Israel-bred, Los Angeles-based psy-trance duo Infected Mushroom, “but when we became a full live band onstage, the reaction was so powerful that we knew we were inventing something new.” “We’re an electronic band,” affirms Amit “Duvdev” Duvedevani, singer and co-founder of the Israel-bred, Los Angeles-based psy-trance duo Infected Mushroom, “but when we became a full live band onstage, the reaction was so powerful that we knew we were inventing something new.”

Indeed a very nice album. What I like the most is that every track sounds completelly different to the other, mostly because that most of them are collaborations with other famous artists. Surpisingly I'm not a fan of Cat On Mushroom track although I love every other collaborations between them (The Fly, Exposed, 2004). Possibly my favorite Space Cat album followed by Shapes Of Sound and Mechanical Dream. (I find Power Up really boring).

Actually it's Fleming The tracklist of Ten has an error

+1000

Texas Douchebag-Secrets Ov Thee Dead

Wizzy Noise-Abyss This track is very beautiful, very well made and gives me a nostalgic feeling. 10/10 from me!

Colorbox have indeed a hard kick and bass, but possibly the tracks you've listened are from Ingmar Veeck who has written many tracks using fake-imitations names including Color Dox How about something like ?

Great compilation! Trippy dark stuff Favorite tracks so far: Dragon-Gravitron(!), Mubali-Stranded In Candyland, Ghreg On Earth-Solstinox, Shapestatic and Elis_Dee - 9teen90nine. The rest are great too.

IMO you can't get anything more Goa-ish than Colorbox. Have you checked Psygone?

Tryon-The Twilight Solution If you're familiar with the Portuguese scene this is not gonna surprise you. Hard, aggressive full on with a dark twist, aggressive basslines and simple melodies. It reminds me a lot of Tryambaka without the classical-influenced melodies (who btw is also Portuguese and his artist name also starts from Try ) Very good twilight psy without any cheese at all! V/A-Lotus Seed Wow! One of the best darkpsy compilation I've bought in a long time. There's no over-the-top power here. Just trippy stuff. All tracks are very well made. My early favorites are Dragon-Gravitron which reminds me a lot of some early DarkPsy tracks (I mean the artist). Very trippy! Plus, amazing tracks by Mubali and Ghreg On Earth, Elis_Dee & Shapestatic. But the rest are very good too. No fillers here. If you're looking for trippy dark stuff give it a try. Mandalavandalz-King Of The Bad Trips Hmmm To be honest I've only listened to it twice and albums like this deserves more listen to fully appreciated. But still I was hoping for more. I was so hyped for this album... Unfortunately almost all tracks are not in the 4/4 signature which I prefer. I know that MV is a crazy producer but I was hoping for more 4/4 killers and not just breakbeat experiments, like his Virtual Koto track. Also all of the tracks are very small. When you're starting to enjoy them they simply end. And so far I haven't listened to a single track that blew my mind. I hope that time (and more listens) will change that. Audiopathik-Global Killer Ok, this is the exact opposite of the Lotus Seed complilation. This is pure dynamite darkpsy. 160-165 bpm with massive bass and crazy sounds all over. I was waiting for something more here too. I think I prefer their compilations tracks more. Most of the tracks here sound the same and pretty forgetable. From the other hand when I am in the mood for head-stomping Psytrance this sounds more than good. The production is amazing and the sound crystal clear. One advice: Play It Loud! V/A-Omnipresence I bought this compilation only for the Delirious Noon-Brainbow track (thanks Jeller ) This track is amazing! The perfect combination of pure Psytrance and nostalgic 90's normal Trance. Simply beautiful! I haven't pay that much attention in the other tracks. They sound okay, a weird mix of morning full on, suomi and pure Psy. The other Delirious Noon track is good but nothing can stand against Brainbow! Wizzy Noise-Renaissance I wasn't really interested to buy this cd. I hadn't heard a Wizzy Noise track in ages and I was though that they have gone completelly clubby. I missed them in Aurora festical too. But the thread Nemo started and the enthusiast reactions of many members sold me. And I'm so glad! This is the best dance cd from my last bulk. Great melodic trancey full on! It's a bit cheesy at times, but most of the times the trancey sound works great! All of the tracks are very well made especially the Abyss track, a real new century anthem! Other great tracks are Sea Song (lovely key changes and trance feeling) and the collaboration with Domi Pastor in WizzDom. Great release! Colourform-Visions Of Surya Not much to say here. Matt Hiller and Jake Stephenson are two of my favorite Ambient producers and this album is so relaxing that I fell asleep everytime I listened to it. (I prefer to listen to Ambient before I go to sleep, great way to fight insomnia btw). From what I remember before Morpheus takes me in his kingdom this album is highly psychedelic too! More comments when I finally listen to the whole album awake

+1

Hahaha Me too! Most Afgin tracks are green. But the definition of green are MFG! The green masters!

Flying Scorpions

It's not a formula, it's just descriptions. All tracks have percussion, bpm, layers etc., so you can just describe these.
